A rite of passage for any upcoming smartphone release is FCC certification Usually, FCC certification takes place just before a launch, due to a nasty habit of revealing important information that handset makers want to keep hidden

This listing, first spotted by MySmartPrice, is good news for those wondering if Samsung intends to keep 5G connectivity for Plus and Ultra models by upselling 5G connectivity is also available on this entry-level version of the It is also listed in this entry-level version This does not mean that there will not be a 4G-only version of the Galaxy Note 20, but at the very least, 5G will be a valuable option for those with nearby infrastructure

While most of what was posted on the FCC relates to connectivity standards, there is some interesting additional information The document gives the Note 20 a length of 161 mm, a width of 752 mm, and a display diagonal of 166 mm This is 653", slightly larger than the 64" Galaxy Note 10

There is also a bit of hidden battery information The listing does not mention capacity, but does mention the model name EB-BN-980ABY; SamMobile found this battery in the Chinese 3C certification database: it has a rated capacity of 4,170mAh, while Samsung has its typical at 4,300mAh capacity is sold

In other words, even a regular Note 20 should have plenty of stamina By comparison, the regular Galaxy Note 10's battery was relatively small at 3,500mAh

It is powered by a Snapdragon 865 Plus processor (Exynos 990 outside the US), combined with 8GB of RAM, 128GB of onboard storage, and a triple camera array on the back

The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will be a mega-flagship, and Samsung is expected to steer people toward this more premium phone with a variety of upgrades: a 120Hz screen (60Hz is strongly rumored for the basic Note 20) as well as 4 GB of RAM, more storage, a larger battery, and a better spec'd camera will be added Given that last year's Note 10 reserved expandable storage and QHD resolution for the Plus model, it would not be at all surprising if Samsung does the same here

All will be revealed shortly Samsung has confirmed that its next Unpacked event will take place on Wednesday, August 5, and while the Note 20 will almost certainly be the main attraction, we can also expect cameos from the Galaxy Tab S7, Galaxy Z Flip 5G, Galaxy Fold 2, and Galaxy Watch 3
